USEFUL SUGGESTIONS.
Pithy Paragraphs on the Construction OF
Farm Houses and Barns.

Ibhy the construction OF
Farm Houses and Barns.
Never purchase farm without hay
ing search made, back to the State, to
know that your title will be perfect,
and be sure that there are no incum-
brances. Never accept the farm or
the title until it has been surveyed, and
the corners located and permanently
marked with stone that is not COM
mon to the locality. If the line fences
are not on the exact line, have them
put there ut once. You can not afford
to quarrel with any one. Plant on tho
roadside, the whole length of the farm
such trees as naturally grow on the
same place. Put them eight feet from
the line. Have some planted around
the dwelling, and in the gullies and
waste places, where nothing else can
grow, and cover the country with trees.
They will help the climate and water
supply.
Have your new house on naturally dry
ground, but if this be impossible, drain
it at least three feet below the bottom
of the cellar wall. Do not lay the cell
lar wall plumb on either side Have it
broadcast at the bottom, and just as
wide as the sill at the top. lit is likely
to freeze, put in a brick wall inside.
Have good cistern and large one,
with brick filter in it. 1t will pay
the cost ten times over in single year.
Have the conductor pipes come down
on the inside, where they will keep
open the year round. You will lose u
little of the roof, to be sure, but in the
winter you can have all the water that
there is. If the corners of the house
are to be north and south, the sun can
shine into every window every day in
the year and the house will be far moro
healthy.
Never live on the north side of q
house in this cold climate, but on the
sunny side, or the children will grow
spindling, the eyes will fail at thirty,
and the women folks will drop into
early graves. The parlor should not
have the most Cheerful! prospect, that is
the room to be enjoyed on the inside.
Let the outlook from the living-rocm be
the most pleasant, where most of tho
time is spent. The barn should be
handy, far enough off so as not to be
in danger if the house burns and not
to endanger the house if it burns. The
best seed-grain is grown on the high
ands because il maturnS slowly AL
ways get your seed from the best
farmers in your vicinity, and if it is
not all right they will be the most
likely to make it all right. Do not pur-
chase poor seed at lower price

COW-POx AND SMALLPOX.
Recent Experiments Showing That the
Two Diseases Are Not Identical.

Recent Experiments Showing That the
Two Diseases Are Not Identical.
George Fleming, LII. D., principal
veterinary surgeon of the British army,
regards as untrue the generally &C
cepted theory that smallpox in
man, and cow-poX, are one and the
same disease. One of the best authori-
ties quoted in support of the theory
was the late MIR. Ceely, who reported
that he had succeeded in producing cow
pox by inoculating u COW with small
pox matter. DR.. Fleming believes thai
Mr.. Ceely was misled in this expert
ment, and that what he really used was
vaccine, and not the virus of smallpox.
His experiment was subsequently re-
peated on twelve heifers by Dr. Klein
under Mr.. Ceely's supervision, and,
though smallpox matter was inserted
abundantly into the missions, cow-pox
was not developed in any of the animals
Similar experiments have been per.
formed in France and Italy, and the re
suits have all been the same as those il
England. DR.. Fleming holds that al
these experiments go to show that the
two diseases are not identical, nor car
cow-pox be produced by inoculatioI
with smallpox virus. Science,
